A female player character in default clothing and hair options available to all players.
A Player character is an avatar representing the player in DC Universe™ Online.
Free to play accounts (either on PC or on PS4) are allowed 2 characters. Premium are allowed 6. Legendary are allowed 16, with purchasable upgrades 36 in total. Participants of the beta test received one additional slot at launch regardless of account tier. Different characters of the same player are sometimes colloquially referred to as "toons". Characters in the same account can trade certain "account bound" items, share a number of shared bank space, and certain rewards (e.g. Doctor Fate's Daily Rewards) can only be claimed by one character in the whole account.
Players must go through Character Creation for each character made, where the player decides their character's gender, Power, Movement Modes, Body Types, Morality, Weapon Styles, Personality, Mentors, Costumes, and last but not least, name.
An NPC resembling a player character is sometimes called a Player spoof.
